State Route 171 (SR-171) is a state highway in the Salt Lake City metropolitan area in northern Utah that runs from SR-111 in Magna in the west side of the city to Interstate 215 in the city of Millcreek in the eastern part valley. In its sixteen-mile span, the route is named 3500 South and 3300 South.
From SR-111 in Magna, the highway (known as 3500 South) runs due east with between one and four general-purpose lanes in each direction until its junction with Redwood Road (SR-68), where it veers to the northeast before again straightening out to the east. Other than the west end, this portion is entirely within West Valley City. The route passes through the former towns (now neighborhoods) of Hunter and Granger as well as West Valley City's modern downtown area near I-215 (which overlaps with historic Granger). The intersection with Bangerter Highway (SR-154) was the first continuous flow intersection built in Utah. At the intersection with 2700 West just west of I-215, the route crosses Green Line (TRAX) light rail tracks near their terminus at the (West Valley Intermodal Hub. Between about SR-154 and Market Street (near 2700 West and I-215), dedicated bus lanes for UTA's 3500 South MAX bus rapid transit line run in the median.
